TERRIBLY INJURED.

Edward Parkson of Worcester, Mass, aged twenty three years, a brakeman on the Nor wich and Worcester railroad, fell beneath the cars of a freight train at Killingly We'd nesday night and had the flesh of his right side terribly mangled. He was taken to Nor wich on the Boston boat train and attended by two surgeons. In spite of every effort to sustain his strength he steadily failed, and at midnight was nearly pulseless and in danger of collapse. If he survives the shock it is probable that his right leg will have to be amputated.

This beautiful and desirable
Sea Island, situated in Matchipun-
60 creek, is divided into two lots or
parcels designated as Lot No. 1
and Lot No. 2.
Lot No. Contains about eight
(S) acres, one half of whichis in q
high state Of cultivation, admirably
adapted to the growth of all the
fruits and trucks grown in this eli
mate. 1t is enclosed witha new post
and rail fence-the owner having
recently erected a nice little new
residence on il at cost of about
$500. The other half is well set in
young timber. Rarely indeed is
such desirable property offered to
the public for sale; combining in a
preeminent degree the advantages
of trucking and gardening,with the
attractions to those seeking sports
and pleasures in shooting all kinds
of birds and wild fowl. The waters
adjacent to this island abound in
the fucst fish, terrepins, CLAIMS and
oysters, and the finest planting bot
tom for the growth and fattening Of
oysters, nearly surround the entire
island to be found in Eastern Yir-
ginia, and also possesses the rare
advantage ofthe power to turn fresh
water on the oysters when needed
and desired. This island also pos
sesses the desirable advantage Of

What True Merit viii Do.

The unprecedented sale of Bos-
chee's German Syrup within a few
years, has astonished the world. 1t
is without doubt the safest and best
remedy ever discovered for the speedy
and effectual cure of Coughs, Colds
and the severest Lung troubles. 1t
acts on an entirely different principle
from the usual prescriptions given by
Physicians, as it does not dry up a
Cough and leave the disease still in
the system, but on the contrary re-
moves the cause of the trouble, heals
the parts affected and leaves them in
a purely healthy condition. A bottle
kept in the house for use when the
diseases make their appearance. will
save doctors bills and long spell of
serious illness. A trial will convince
you of these facts. 1t is positively
sold by all druggists and general
dealers in the land. Price 75 cts,

Mr.. Editor:-On the 5th day of April the vO-
tiers of jefferson county will determine by their
verdict Mt the POLLS VIII tlIcr the course of the
anti Camden men Of the Democratic party III
the Legislature shall he endorsed. or whether
the policy of the majority in the Legislature to
uphold monopOlics and force upon the people
n Rcprescmtative in the United States Senate.
whose position by reason OF his connection with
one of the greatest mOnOpOlirs OF the age. is
distasteful to the masses ard in opposition to
true Democratic teachings and principles
With the exception of few malcontents. we
believe the Democracy of Morgan county fully
approves aud endorses the course of the twelve
men who stood out so nobly against the efforts
of those who sought To throttle the voices OF
the minority and impuTn to them unworthy
motives and will honor Gov. Wilson for his
action in appointing Daniel d. Lucas of Jeiter-
son county to represent West Virginia i'll the
Sena - of the United States. 1t is just; it is
right lat Mr.. I.nrrs should have been chosen
not only in recognition of his services to the
Democratic party in the past. but in recognition
of his fearless position in the Legislature to
save the Democratic party from the impending
doom in 1SSS. That Mr.. Lucas vii! represent
West Virginia until 1889. we firmly believe, and
that West Virginia will have just cause to be
proud of the efforts of her Representative in the
Senate there can be no doubt. The position of
the Democratic party to-day in the State we
consider in better condition for the campaign
in 1888 than it would have been had Mr.. Cam
den ben reelected. ard with the principles
cnunci ,ted by Mr.. Lucas and his friends to he
orr rallving cry, we are confident that West
Virginia will assume her position in the line of
Democratic Statcs in 1888 by such IL majority
that will forever put at rest any doubts as to
the political position of the State. democrats
stand firm; the interests of West Virginia could
not be entrusted to safer aud wiser hands than
Daniel Bcdinger Lucas of jefferson county.

anteed to give satisfaction, and prices
are as low as will justify us and Il
give you satisfaction. So bring your

Mr.. d. I. Wilcoxson, of Horse
Cave, Ky, says he was, for many
years, badly afflicted with Phthisic,
also Diabetes; the pains were almost
uncomfortable and would sometimes
almost throw him into commissions.
He tried Electric Bitters and got re-
lief from first bottle and after taking
six bottles, was entirely cured, and
had gained in flesh eighteen pounds.
Says he positively believes he would
have died, had it not been for the re-
lief afforded by Electric Bitters.-

And live man to be.
He. never for q moment still.
ssPerpetual motion" showsi
His happy whistle, loud and snsth,
Is heard where'er he goes.
At home he's tired" aud he'll shirk
An errand. or a chore,
But at neighbor's-how he'll work.
And even cry for more.
He'll shrek with terror long before
He feels the slipper hot,
Then skip out West in search of gore
And Indians kill lot.
In school he's timid, dull and slow,
But when he's in the street
There's nothing that he doesn't know;
His smartness can't be beat.
Woe to a man if he becomes
A small boys enemy;
The lad and all his little chuns
VIII drive him in the sea.
Some think the boys u nuisance and

Suppose he is-wc'll take his hand,
For we've been small boys, too.
